1 SATS An Explanation of Working Trials Exercises Plus how to get started/ What to expect for Newcomers to the sport of Working Trials

2 What are Working Trials? Working Trials tests were originally based on police dog work and date back to 1924, with the first event held by ASPADS (Associated Sheep, Police and Army Dog Society). The first championship trial was hosted by the Alsatian League and Club of Great Britain in May Dogs compete in Stakes and the dogs must achieve 70% of the marks in each section and 80% overall to qualify and progress upwards. If a dog wins two Championship stakes, either in TD or PD, the dog is awarded the title of Working Trials Champion, (WTCh). Rostov completing the 9 foot long jump. The dog must wait once completing the jump for the handler to join them and the exercise complete is given by either judge or steward. Neither dog nor handler must pass the first element before exercise is attempted. Competitions are either Open or Championship and with the exception of CDEx, dogs must qualify in the Open stake before entering the Championship version. In order to qualify for entry into the TD Championship test stake, dogs must achieve two WDEx and two TD Open qualifications and for the PD Championship test dogs must achieve two WDEx and two PD Open qualifications. These are often referred to as the Ticket stakes because if you win these classes you are eligible to enter in the annual Kennel Club Championships, in other words you gain your ticket for the competition. The stakes are: CD UD WD TD PD Introductory Stake Companion Dog Utility Dog Working Dog Tracking Dog Patrol Dog All stakes consist of nosework, agility and control. The introductory stake has lower jumps (listed below) and in CD and UD stakes there are reduced jumps for smaller dogs. From WD upwards full size jumps must be completed, these consist of 3 clear/6 scale/9 long.

3 Demonstrating heelwork. This must be done without extra commands and there are three paces to be worked: normal, slow and fast. The change of pace may be completed from a halt or on the move at the judges discretion. In Intro and CD there are two sets of heelwork, on and off lead, in all other stakes heelwork is completed off the lead. Introductory Stake This stake is designed to introduce new comers into Working Trials, however, there is no qualification to be gained from this stake and it is an optional test. It consists of nosework: retrieve of dumbbell, search square with 4 articles, of which 3 need to be retrieved. Control: heel on lead; heel free; recall; sendaway; sit and down stays and Agility: clear (2 6 /1 6 /1 3 ), long and scale, reduced for smaller dogs.

4 Emma jumping 3 hurdle. This is always the first of the agility jumps to be completed. Jumps are completed under control and once over the jump, the dog must wait (in any position) for the handler to join the dog and the exercise complete is given by the judge or steward. If the dog does not wait, this may incur a penalty or possibly loss of all marks if the dog comes back beyond the jump to the handler. Companion Dog The nosework in this stake consists of a search square 15 yards square with three articles, two of which must be recovered within 4 minutes to qualify. Control consists of: recall; retrieve; heel on lead; heel free; sendaway; sit and down stays. The nosework in all stakes above CD contain a track. Utility Dog (UD) In UD the nosework consists of a track which is 30 minutes old with two articles, of which a minimum of one must be recovered to qualify. A search square of 25 yards with 4 articles, of which a minimum of two must be recovered to qualify. Control section consists of heel free; retrieve; sendaway, steadiness to gun shot and a 10 minute out of sight down stay. The Agility section consists of clear, long and scale.

5 Kazak working the 25 yard search square. Handlers are not permitted in the square. In UD and above there are 4 articles of which a minimum of 2 must be recovered to qualify. This exercise is allocated 5 minutes to be completed. Working Dog (WD) In WD the nosework consists of a track which is 1 hour 30 minutes old with two articles, of which a minimum of one must be recovered to qualify. A search square of 25 yards with 4 articles, of which a minimum of two must be recovered to qualify. Control section consists of heel free; retrieve; sendaway, steadiness to gun shot and a 10 minute out of sight down stay. The Agility section consists of clear, long and scale. Monty going over the 6 Scale. This jump must be taken from a halt and within 9 of the scale. Once over the dog must adopt a position nominated by the handler (sit, down or stand) and wait before being recalled back over the scale to the handler. Tracking Dog (TD) In TD the nosework consists of a track which is 3 hours old with three articles, of which a minimum of two must be recovered to qualify. A search square of 25 yards with 4 articles, of which a minimum of two must be recovered to qualify. Control section consists of heel free; speak on command; sendaway and re-direct, steadiness to gun shot and a 10 minute out of sight down stay. The Agility section consists of clear, long and scale.

6 India (GSD) and Kyte (BC) tracking. This is done with the dog on a harness and line. Tracks are for half a mile, in a pattern of the judges choosing and starting from a pole. In UD there is a second pole indicating the direction of the first leg of the track. However in all other stakes, the track may go in any direction away from the pole. In UD the first article must be in the first half of the track. Patrol Dog (PD) Banjo carrying out a re-direct left. In TD and PD there is a re-direct after the sendaway. In PD the nosework consists of a track which is 2 hours old with two articles, of which a minimum of two must be recovered to qualify. A search square of 25 yards with 4 articles, of which a minimum of two must be recovered to qualify. Control section consists of heel free; speak on command; sendaway and re-direct, steadiness to gun shot and a 10 minute out of sight down stay. The Agility section consists of clear, long and scale. Additionally in the PD stake is the Patrol test which includes quartering; test of courage; search and escort; recall from protected steward and pursuit and detention.

7 Kazak catching the protected steward after a pursuit. Kazak holding the protected steward after quartering the field Steward can t out run this smart dog...but really, he s retrieving the sleeve! Stays In Intro and CD there is a sit stay. For Intro it is 1 minute in sight, for CD 2 minutes out of sight. Intro down stay is 5 minutes out of sight and CD and all other stakes it is 10 minutes out of sight.

8 Getting Started So, you ve done the training, your dog is doing all the exercises and its time to enter. Couple of things that need to be done first, your dog MUST be registered with the Kennel Club. That doesn t mean the dog needs to be a pedigree, you can register your dog on the Activities Register. The forms and details can be found on the Kennel Club website. You will need to choose a name and Kennel Club like unusual names, breeders have protected affixes and you cannot use those. Choose a couple of names to put on your registration application in case the first one is already in use. There is a fee for the registration. Alternatively, if you have a pedigree dog, your breeder should have supplied you with a Kennel Club registration document, make sure you get the registration transferred into your name. Again, details can be found on the Kennel Club website. A second MUST is that the dog must be 18 months of age at the time of the entry for the competition closes. Entry Forms Societies do provide schedules and entry forms for their competitions, usually in electronic form on the society s website, Working Trials World or you may pick up a schedule from another competition. Or if that s difficult for you, an sae to the trials secretary or manager requesting an entry form in plenty of time will get you a schedule and entry form. Ensure that your entry form has all the details completed. All helpers at trials are volunteers, nobody gets paid for their time, the trials manager/ secretary will receive numerous entry forms, make sure yours is correct. An incomplete or incorrect entry form could mean that you ask, any of the SATS Committee or trialists would be able to help you with this. Send the entry in plenty of time and that you include an sae. The trials manager will send you your report time after the entries close, so an sae is essential. This is a SATS Entry form. Rostov presenting the dumbell.

9 You will also need to enclose a cheque for the full amount of the entry fee. The fee amount will be on the schedule. The schedule will also tell you who the cheque should be made payable to, this will be the Kennel Club registered name of the trials society. You ve received your report time, you re off to the trial! The trials manager will send you a report time, this is when you are due to be at the trial. It may not be the day that was your first choice, unfortunately, entry numbers often make this impractical and a draw may not have fallen in your favour. Make sure you arrive in plenty of time. At the Base Note and comply with any parking restrictions, often trials are based in village halls where there s no facility to exercise your dog. Report to the trials manager and let them know you have arrived. They will tell you where you may exercise your dog, what time you are working your dog and what facilities are available (tea, coffee, refreshments etc). If this is your first time at a trial, mention this to the manager, they will explain proceedings. Anything that you are unsure about, no matter how minor or silly you think it is, ASK. Nobody will

10 think you are daft and its better to clarify than get it wrong. Trials folks are a friendly bunch and willing to help. We ve all been newbies at some stage. It is normal for a few competitors to have the same report time. This will usually result in a draw taking place for your working order. The trials manager will tell you what time the draw will take place, make sure you are there for the draw time. There will be a catalogue for the competition, sometimes there is a small fee for the catalogue. The catalogue will list your details for the stake for which you are entered. It will also give you a number. Make a note of this number, you will need it to tell your judge when you report for your test. This is a SATS Catalogue Getting to the test Often the competition will take place away from the base and you will be given instructions on how to reach the test. There may be a drive to the test and sometimes you may be given the luxury of an escort, again, you will be told what time the escort will be leaving, ensure you are ready to go when the escort leaves. Its usual for more than one competitor to be escorted so there may be a wait once you reach the test area. Make sure you comply with any parking requests by the trial manager. If you are unsure, please ask. We rely on local residents and farmers for our competitions, we don t want to upset any of them. Arriving at the test When you arrive at the test, there may be a running order for CD/Intro or you will have a tracking time for the tracking test.

11 CD/Intro The CD/Intro test will be conducted in two parts, the nosework section and the control and agility. You will be advised which part is first and for the nosework section you will need to take your dumbbell. Control and Agility You will have a judge and a steward (very rarely a scribe) for the Control and Agility section of the test. The judge and steward will talk you through the test and exercises. Follow the stewards instructions. If you are unsure, ASK. You will be shown where the judge wants you to send your dog for the sendaway, the position you choose at the end of the sendaway will be your choice, as will the position the dogs adopt on the other side of the jumps. The agility section will always start with the clear jump, followed by either the scale or long jump, this is the judge s decision. For the scale, you will be shown the 9 foot markers. Your dog must have its front feet inside this area and you must come to a halt before the face of the scale is attempted. The judge or steward will ask you what position your dog will take on the other side of the scale. If your dog does not adopt this position, you will lose marks. You will also be told when to recall your dog back across the scale. This photo shows a scale with 9 markers. These are usually poles, but, can be other things, the judge or steward will show you these before you attempt the jump, if you are unsure, ask. At the end of the control and agility section, do not forget to thank the judge and steward for their time. They will be standing around in all kinds of weather to accommodate the test, they may possibly have sacrificed working their own dogs to enable the test to take place. Whether your dog qualifies or not, they will be doing their best to help you and have given up their time. Tracking Tests On the tracking field you will have a judge, square steward and track layer. Be ready to work your dog at the allocated track time. Tracks are in 30 minute slots, if you are not ready on time you may not have enough time left in your slot to work your dog. The judge will take your details, including your catalogue number. The tracklayer will show you where they walked into the start of your track. Be sure to thank the tracklayer for laying your track, they may have been up since early morning laying tracks for the competition.

12 The square steward will lay your search square for you, be sure to thank them for your square. As a courtesy, if you recover all the articles, offer to collect the square marker poles. This may not be needed but your consideration will be greatly appreciated. At the end of the test, the judge will summarise how your test went and give you your marks. No matter how your test went, be sure to thank the judge for their time. Withdrawing from the test You may decide that you don t want to continue with the test for whatever reason. If you do make this decision, ensure that the judge and the trial manager are informed of your decision. Otherwise they may spend time looking for you. At the end of the test/day Once the test has been completed, for all competitors, the judge will return to the base and hand the marks to the trial manager. The scores will be written on a score board and added up, qualifiers and places will be decided at this point. You will be keen to see your scores in writing, but, please allow the base staff to finish writing and adding up first. It is very distracting having people peering over your shoulder and may cause an error in the adding up, none of us want that! There is often a score sheet included in the catalogue. You might want to think about keeping your scores, then you can reflect on how well you have done! The Presentation There will be a presentation at the end of the day, certificates of merit for qualifiers will be handed out and so will places, up to fourth place. As a courtesy to all involved, try and stay for the presentation and join in the applause for the qualifiers, no matter how you have fared. A final thank you to the trials manager and base staff will be the end of your day, phew! Hope you enjoyed it Getting Involved Training your dog is great, its fun for both you and your dog. However, you will learn far more about competition and working your dog by watching and becoming involved in trials. There are always lots of jobs to be done and helpers are always needed. Offer up your services to trials managers ahead of the competition. If on rare occasions there s not a job (highly unlikely), ask if you can go to the field and watch a couple of competitors. This will also need the approval of the judge and competitor, but, is rarely refused. Get involved, you will be amazed how much you will learn and its fun, after all, training and competing with our dogs is something we all do for pleasure.
